Why do people say Hillary Clinton has the experience and leadership to be President?

Question

Frankly, I put Hillary's qualifications in the same league as Dumbya's.
Both made it on the reputation of an ex-President in the family who has all the power and connections.
That's not a good league for America to be getting its leaders from.
As for Hillary - how can she claim to be experienced?
She has been an elected official for 6 years, with zero executive experience ever running anything.
So-called (by her) "naive", "green" Barak Obama has been an elected official for 10 years.
And her leadership?
She is best known for two things: her disasterous health care fiasco, and her disasterous Iraq vote.

Honestly, I think there are literally thousands of people who are more qualified to be President than her.

sohappi, the only ones giving slick Willie orders were the pollsters.

JimSock - She doesn't have more experience than Richardson, Biden, or Dodd.

Answer 1

Maybe because she was the one giving Billy orders when he was President.

Answer 2

This is my personal opinion: those people do not know any better. HRC never gave an honest answer to her dealings in Arkansas. Has too many skeletons in her closet. The fact that HRC was the first lady for eight years and has been senator for six doesn't mean she has the experience and the knowledge to become president.

Answer 3

Joe Bidden is the most prepared Obama-Bidden or Bidden-Obama would rock my socks Hillary is exploiting her sex as well as her name. I'm not knocking her for doing it but I cant fully support her for that reason.

Just a quick note being a black male i now understand how one can be labled bigoted for their comments on a minority. I often read how white people are somewhat conscious about what hey say about minorities to avoid this label and i now find myself framing commnets about hillary so I dnt seem ignorant as well. Its not that hard

Answer 4

You make some points.

But, she did have the ear of the president for eight years. I am sure he talked to her (she's very smart) and asked/received her advice and feedback numerous times during the administration. That adds up and has value.

In 2008 she will be a 8 year senator and that has value.

Answer 5

Simply by virtue of here marriage to Bill. She figures that should count for something.
Besides, neither one has ever had to work for a living, and as soon as the people of New York find out she is a carpet bagger, they will dump her post haste.

Answer 6

Actually, W. had executive experience as governor of Texas. Regardless of the general opinion of him, this is a fact.

The easiest way to shut up a Hillary supporter is to ask what she's ever done. In effect, exactly what you're asking: What is her experience?

Answer 7

Because.. the parties aren't that different and they have really good marketing departments?

I think she said she has "experience" about a dozen times in the last debate I saw. Its like how Bush repeats himself a lot until it sinks in.

Answer 8

Because she already served 8 years in office? Far as I'm concerned she shouldn't be allowed to run, because she already served two terms.

Answer 9

I wouldn't put hitlery in charge of the cat toy aisle at the grocery store.

Answer 10

Hillary actually answers your question in tonights Youtube CNN democratic debate. Tune in it was a very good answer.

Answer 11

Well, she certainly doesn't have much experience in showing up for work.
While she's all over creation campaigning, who is doing her work in Washington??
